Which model is that? Steel? Looks perfect. Especially the ergos.

Swamp Rat M6. Steel is differentially heat treated SR-101 (tweaked 52100). They’re awesome.

If you like those ergos the rmd variants are similar and easier to find. I agree with antdog, busses heat treat on the 52100 is amazing. Sharpens well, good edge retention, tough as nails, patinas beautifully. Probably my favorite non stainless non cpm steel as heat treated by the busse/swamp crew.

Thanks John! Only the third flower carved sheath I've done. The wife use to do all our flower carving but I've taken over recently so she can focus on her bags. I've always done the oak carving though so not a huge learning curve. Kinda a different order of steps though.Aww. Come on now!! You are just showing off!!
Just kidding!!
